Excellent

In October, we joined Linda for a tour led by the London Blue Badge Guide. It was an absolutely fantastic and enriching experience. Her extensive knowledge of each site we explored was impressive. The tour spanned the entire day, and I wholeheartedly recommend it. The group size can accommodate up to 20 to 25 participants.

Good tour to see some London highlights. The guide Oliver was brilliant. Only con was the cruise - pretty average. Would have been better spent walking along the river front.
